After working graveyard for 4 1/2 months, I just found out that next shift I'm going to is.... graveyard for another 4 1/2 month. It sucks normally. It especially sucks that this next` shift goes over summer through September.

All the old ****s who couldn't find a pool party if they used google get to sit at home during the day throughout the summer while I sleep. FML.

I know, first world problems.

I ******* love the summer. This entire next summer will consist of me working every single weekend night with the great days of wed and thur off (most of which I will be sleeping during the day). I repeat, FML.

dude you need guys need to adopt the Chicago rotation... police (including 911 operators) go on revolving days off... 6 on 2 off.... and if your 2 days off are weekends, you get a 3 day. so if your 2 days are saturday n sunday, you get either friday or monday off too. so you get a 3 day weekend like every 1 and a half months.

i know this cuz i applied and took the test for 911 dispatcher... yet i FAILED with an 80%...... sigh... i think we know why i really failed...

my lower back's swollen up pretty bad, worked at construction site yesterday and after 8 hours of work a gypsum board which was thrown from 2nd/3rd floor hit me right on the back and i wasn't able to go gym today since laying down is painful for me right now. I hope tomorrow the swell-up will go down and ill be back in shape soon. :/

That sounds awesome. Everything at my station is based on seniority. I've been on for 5 years but thats still nothing in the big picture. There's guys who have been on longer than I've been alive.

That sucks about the test. How did you fail with an 80%? Out here 75% and better is passing. But they combine the written with an interview into one score and pass the top 5 to the next stage.
